Nuevo en el foro, pregunta rápida sobre el tamaño de la posición para diferentes clases de activos

Traducido automáticamente del original · Leer el original (English)

Hola a todos, acabo de unirme. Llevo un tiempo operando con acciones, pero estoy empezando a incursionar en forex ($EURUSD, $GBPUSD) y materias primas. Siempre he usado un porcentaje fijo para las acciones, pero se siente un poco... raro para el mayor apalancamiento y volatilidad en otros mercados. Para aquellos de ustedes activos en diferentes clases de activos, ¿ajustan su metodología de tamaño de posición, o se apegan a un enfoque universal?

Welcome! I've been wondering the same thing. Do you find that a fixed percentage ends up with wildly different dollar risks across the asset classes, or is it more about the margin requirements making it feel off?

Welcome! That's a great question, and something I've been wrestling with as I look into crypto beyond my usual stock trades. Do you find a fixed percentage easier to manage psychologically even with the higher volatility?

Welcome! That's a great question, and definitely something worth considering. I find that a fixed percentage can be too aggressive for forex given the leverage, so I tend to size down quite a bit or use a volatility-adjusted approach there. Do you mean a fixed percentage of your total account, or per trade?

Welcome! Yes, 'a bit off' is a polite way to put it when your fixed equity percentage meets a leveraged forex trade. Many of us have learned that lesson the hard way. Do you find you're adjusting for volatility, or more for the increased margin requirements?
